Third Daytona (A7750@6) went dead ... Dealer caught this before sending the watch and replacing it... But FYI everyone on reliability of these movements...

Hello everyone. I am not a rep maniac as you all seem to be reading your competence, so I beg your pardon for any stupidity I might say. I looking to buy a nice iwc, I like the simple ones saint exupery and big pilot...I don't understand the abbreviations you are using in this thread, plus as I understand there are flaws and problems, and I don't want to afford a watch to stop after a while...can you tell me what's the problem at stake? I read all the pages I swear... Is that any trusted dealer who solved the problemi? How do you think the 25 j is as a movement?

 

[merowinger]

Hi Paolo, there are some problematic movements, like the one with the small second at position "6". If you want to be on the safe side regarding the movement , go for a simple 3-hands watch, without chronograph functions (such as the big pilot). Any TD is good.

thanks a lot for being so fast and clear...what do you think about watch station?

Never used them but if you read their conditions they supply no warranty for the watch or replacement watch if customs seize it. They make this clear and that is why they are a much lower cost.
If you want to save money and take a risk that's fine or pay a bit more and get 'some' piece of mind.

But if I get the watch shipped to china... I won't have problems correct?

I can't comment as I don't know them or have ever dealt with them. It was just I was reading their terms and conditions a couple of days ago.
I would suggest you contact them and discuss your requirements with them rather than me or anyone else giving you secondhand information.

 

[paolomolino]

thanks, that's very correct of yours

Looks like it, details on the Puretime website now. No mention of the improved movement that was supposed to come with this

Jesus Christ !! V2 is available!! Looks absolutely stunning!! Order sent ! Must have...will risk it with the movement! Does anyone know the lug width for this one ? Thanks guys!

I don´t think this is the ZF version.
On the picture Ryan(from Intime) has posted from the prototype, the subdial-spacing is different,
than on an usual A7750 movement. The subdials are closer too the center than on an A7750.
And on the description on this version on Puretime´s site, it says, they have used an A7750 movement.
Which shouldn´t be a problem, because Domi has a new method, too fix a seconds at 6 movement.
But i don´t buy this watch, because they messed up the date wheel again.
It´s not well centered. The numerals are too close to the center.
With a date window big like on that watch, this is a deal breaker for me.
Still waiting for ZF´s version!

 

[merowinger]

You are right about the date wheel. Probably not ZF. We will find out soon.

 

[apfabio]

ZF is available now on intime, looks very nice!

What do you think about?

I am not an IWC Spitfire expert, but the on on Ryan`s website looks spot on Stunning
These are pics when I tried it on in an AD at the airport
